[Magdalen] Sarah report

[flyingfish224 at aol.com]

Elvis has left the building!

After a minor setback of being unable to tolerate the dressing changes w/o morphing, the Wonderwoman (formerly known to many of you who have known her since childhood as Wonderchild) was released from Grady Memorial yesterday.

We navigated dressing changes w/o nursing staff or morphine.

She is planning to go to. Work meeting tomorrow night, and I say Rock On!

So we need her to be able to change her dressings by herself - she is currently about 60% there.  Caring for the donor site (where the skin for the grafts was harvested) is a bitch.  The donor site, which is probably 5"x20", is the most painful.  She needs to be able to reduce her narcotics and she needs to be able to drive.  Through God's mercy and grace, she will meet   those milestones soon.

And maybe in about a year, I will stop weeping.

Thank you for your prayers

Renee
